absolute value inequality

OpenStudy (stefrheart):

where is the problem

OpenStudy (mikezack123):

\[2|4x+1|-5\le 1\]

OpenStudy (stefrheart):

okay so first add the 5 to both sides

OpenStudy (stefrheart):

\[2\left| 4x+1\right|=\]

OpenStudy (stefrheart):

6

OpenStudy (stefrheart):

so then you would divide the 2 \[\left| 4x=1 \right|=\] 3

OpenStudy (stefrheart):

whoops add the sign into it so it makes into 2 equations

OpenStudy (stefrheart):

\[4x-1\le1 and -\left( 4x-1 \right)\le 1\]

OpenStudy (stefrheart):

then solve and you get your answer! if you need more help just ask!

myininaya (myininaya):

you had \[|4x+1| \le 3 \] this implies you have \[-3 \le 4x+1 \le 3 \]

myininaya (myininaya):

then solve
